Yes, Tenby certainly does exist - it is beautiful little walled town in
Pembrokeshire, with 5 beautiful beaches. It is near Pembroke and Milford
Haven,on the shore of Carmarthen Bay. Have visited there and it is a charming
village. My husband's father spoke of Tenby with great affection, and while
he himself was born in Saundersfoot (about 4 miles or so North of Tenby, also
on the Bay) his family roots seemed to be in Tenby.
Right at this moment I can't put my hands on the various things I have about
Tenby, but will keep your letter so can tell you more later.
Do you have roots there? Ruthe White

Hi All,
I wrote a while back about a mysterious THURLOW ancestor of mine
belonging to an equally mysterious "Society" of some sort, well I now have a
copy of the photo, and whilst I could go into great detail on the insignia I
wouldn`t want to bore everyone on these lists, but if anyone is willing I
can send them a scan of the mysterious gentleman in all his finery for them
to possible help put an end to the mystery......
Thanks in advance,

Hi
Have now finished reading " The Rebecca Riots" by David Williams.
Certainly worth buying, not so much for the story of the actual tearing down
of toll gates etc but for the background content described in the book's sub
heading of " A Study in Agrarian Discontent ", t'was a real education for me,
not that I previously knew that much about the 1830/45 period in rural Dyfed.
I see from the book's extensive chapter notes that there is a reference to a
book called * Llandilo Vawr and its neighbourhood * by W Davies in 1858, does
anyone know where I might find a copy ? I've just emailed Carmarthen Archives,
I expect they'll have it there , or the CMN Reference Library.

Here is some information about Bethebara, from "North of the Hills" by
E.T.Lewis.
>From about 1806 onwards some Eglwyswen Baptists met in anumber of
farm-houses near the hills. It is known that services were held at
Miriannog Fawr, Glynmaen, Blaenffynnon, Coedcefnlas and Cilcam. There was a
Sunday school at Tyrhos. Apparently the men who were largely instrumental
in propagating Baptist ideas locally at the turn of the eighteenth century
onwards to the 1820s were Thomas Rees, Miriannog Fawr, Timothy Jenkins,
Coedcefnlas and James James, who was previously a minister at Hermon,
Llanfyrnach. By 1876 they had gained enough enthusiasm to build the chapel
which was named Bethebara. By 1838, the new church had eighty members and
its status by 1852 was sufficiently established for the members to act as
hosts to the Pembrokeshire 'cymanfa'. These association meetings were also
held there in 1894. Possibly the year of its greatest success was 1859 when
thirty seven were baptized. This local expansion was said to be the result
of the prayers of Myfyr Emlyn's father; of these new members, four entered
the ministry.

Hi everyone
I'm reading "Mankind" a morality play written between 1465-70. It was
played in the Norfolk and Lincolnshire areas (as only one copy of the play
has survived little is known about its circuit but is assumed that was
played in N and L because certain locals are mentioned by name). I hope one
of these names fits in your tree!
*W (illiam) Fyde
*Master Huntington of Sauston
*William thurlay of Hauston
*Picharde of Trumpington
*Williham Bakere of Walton
*Richerde Bollman of Gayton

*William Patrike of Massingham

Manhattan, NY. land claim, well that unique story forms the subject matter
of
the proposed programme. The thirty minute programme will be wide ranging,
sourcing upto date information on the story, together with interviews both
here and in America.
If you are interested in more information or think you would like to
contribute in some positive way to this programme, please contact me by
E-mail, or snailmail me at the following address.

Does anyone on the list have easy access to the above for 1857? I have a
mystery, and cannot think of another solution.
My grandfather, a Londoner, Walter EMERSON married twice. The 1881 census
gives his wife as Sarah, aged 24, b Burton PEM. No surname of course.
Their marriage c 1878? may have taken place in Burton.
His second wife, much later, Was Edith Annie THOMAS b Moncton, close by.
Her mother was before marriage Mary Alice WILLIAMS from Burton.
Looking at present day maps, the farms of the two families are very close.
My grandfather was a master mariner in the Trinity service, and must have
been based at Narberth at periods in his life, and befriended by PEM
people.
I am curious to know whether the two girls came from the two families, or
if not, who Sarah was. I'd be most grateful for some help.

Thank you Darren for responding to my supplementary questions re the new
wales.genealogy newsgroup.
Having at last found the aol address to write to, I have, as suggested by
Darren , now mailed
newsmaster(a)aol.net
asking that it be listed by aol, apparently they consider all these requests
on Fridays weekly, and it will appear on the following Monday.
As long as they agree to carry it of course.
Any other aol/dyflist subscribers who wish to have a look at it might also
mail aol as above, they may well respond to the volume of requests, from
their blurb they seem to have a policy of not carrying "local interest groups"
.
I look forward to sampling this "other world of genealogy" away from mailing
lists which I admit to having acquired a great fondness for.

Hello,
I would be interested in finding out/sharing information with anyone who
is researching the name CLARIDGE.
My CLARIDGE ancestors moved to Wales, from Oxfordshire, circa 1812/13 to
manage the estate of the Pryse family of Gogerddan. They lived at
Gloucester Hall, in Penryn-coch near Aberystwyth, just down the road
from the Pryse's home which is now part of IGER.
I know some CLARIDGES emigrated to the US in the late 1800's, but I am
sure there must be a few remaining in Wales, so would be pleased to hear
from them.
If anyone has any information, please contact me.
Regards

This fits with the 1851 census entry where both Mary and her first husband
Thomas are listed as born "Kilpason" but they are living in Green St.,
Tenby.

That would be Mary Elizabeth?

Most certainly will and I thank you for taking the trouble to search all the

This is a mailing list for the old counties of Cardiganshire, Carmarthenshire & Pembrokeshire ie. the modern DYFED.
It is ESSENTIAL that you read the Do's and Don'ts section of the list site at http://home.clara.net/daibevan/DyfedML.html BEFORE posting any messages to the list
Please begin messages relevant to only one county with the appropriate 3 letter county code.
Please give as much information as possible for the background to your question. It is frustrating for someone to spend time seeking information only to be told later that it was already known. Showing you already have some information may encourage a lister 'to go the extra mile' to help you find more.
